The Prototype:
During the first half of the 1900s,
the locomotive maker Orenstein &
Koppel (O&K) delivered small
industrial locomotives like this
one to "field" railways around the
world.
They proved themselves as indispensable
workhorses, and many
owners viewed their little locos
with great pride, giving them
colorful paint, detailed pin striping
and gleaming bright work.
